    • Welcome

    Welcome to the website of St Peter’s Cathedral, Adelaide.

    First Sunday in Lent, Sunday 9 March 2014

    Welcome: 

    So – the journey has begun! Ash Wednesday saw close to 170 people making the pilgrimage to the altar to receive the imposition of ashes. Now we move onwards through Lent towards Holy Week.

    I’ve been puzzling over the idea of the wilderness (see today’s Gospel reading from Matthew 4). I have always thought of the wilderness as a hostile place, where Jesus is given a hard time by the devil. But could it be a benign
    ‘space’ (neither negative or positive)? What might happen in that space? We’ll be thinking more about the wilderness throughout Lent.

    Who makes the decisions in the Cathedral? At the annual Vestry Meeting on 30 March, every person who regularly worships at St Peter’s and considers themselves a member of this community, has the chance to elect a People’s Warden and a number of Cathedral Councillors. The Cathedral Council are your voice through the year. Nominations are now called for for People’s Warden and Cathedral Council members.

    Welcome to all who find themselves in the wilderness from time to time, fellow travellers with Jesus to the cross and beyond, and who worship today.
